Wired Productions, a leading independent video games publisher, and decorated Italian development studio, Storm in a Teacup, have announced a new partnership to bring the narrative horror game Close to the Sun to PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC in 2019.
The teams have debuted a new announcement trailer that can be watched below.
Recipient of an Unreal Dev Grant in 2018, Close to the Sun is instantly recognisable for its breathtaking art deco aesthetic, painting a unique and alternative vision of history, and a second age of scientific enlightenment at the end of the 20th century.
"Prospective players will guide Rose as she sets foot aboard the Helios – a colossal and mysterious ship, created by Nikola Tesla, as a haven for scientific progress, isolated from society and the threat of corporate espionage."
“Close to the Sun is a beautiful and unique title which showcases both the talent of the developer and the calibre of experience synonymous with the Wired Productions brand,” said Leo Zullo, Managing Director, Wired Productions. “Our pipeline for 2019 builds upon the quality titles we’ve brought to market over this past year, and we couldn’t be happier to announce this partnership with Storm in a Teacup.”
Close to the Sun will release in 2019, but you can follow the game now to receive future updates on Facebook and at www.closetothesungame.com.
